Can you hear the call?

You’ve heard hundreds of versions of the same story. For one person it’s a heart attack. For another person it’s a divorce. It’s getting fired, getting cancer, or losing someone special. It arrives in different forms, but people refer to it as getting their “wake up call”.

Why would you wait for the shadow of death to arrive before you set aside shallow complaints and connect with the deepest, most real parts of life? Why would you wait for the threat of ruin before you decide to live with the intention and discipline your life deserves? Why would you wait for a wake up call like that? 

The call never stops. It sounds off every morning, every night, and every second in-between. You just stop listening. Until it eventually rings loud enough to wake you up.

Embrace the chase. Do the work.

Vocare = calling
